I suppose it might be a bit much to expect government accounts to go find a Lemmy instance to post this, so I'm copying this from Reddit. Yep.
For the first time in South Australia, tenants will have the right to own a pet under further rental reforms proposed by the Malinauskas Labor Government.
As part of the reforms to the Residential Tenancies Act, the Government will consult on a bill that includes a presumption that a tenant who applies to keep a pet in a rental property cannot have their request unreasonably refused, provided the tenant agrees to comply with any reasonable conditions imposed by the landlord.
For many of us, our pets are family and it is heartbreaking that some South Australians have been in a position where they have had to choose between having a roof over their head and giving up a beloved pet.
That’s why our Government is acting decisively to make housing more accessible for all South Australians including those with pets.
My Government is supporting tenants while balancing the interests of landlords.
We have already taken steps to ban rent bidding, raise the bond threshold – saving South Australian tenants $1.3 million in the first month alone – and get private rental assistance in the hands of more people.
And now we are ensuring people aren’t having to sacrifice their dearly loved pets to avoid being homeless.
So I've been looking up VPN stuff, and in the process, I've stumbled on ProtonVPN, from the same people as ProtonMail. They're now offering private cloud storage, and I'm wondering how private is it. e2e means I have to manage the keys on my device right? I don't know how else it could realistically work, if they manage keys, they can access my keys etc?
